21 More Expat and Travel Blogs to Watch

Following in a more experienced person’s footsteps is a great way to learn something new, or to take the fear factor away from a scary new undertaking.

Sharing an expat’s experience with the process of relocating, or their life overseas, can teach some very useful lessons.

Here’s a list of expat and travel blogs and websites that are worth a look. To my surprise, I discovered it’s been about three months since the last one, so here’s a new list for 2012.

  1. My Life In Canada Under the Snow
  2. Gringos in Paradise (Mexico), for American expats in Mexico
  3. Anywhere in the World, expat entrepreneur from France
  4. The Road Less Traveled, American couple spend part of every year in Mexico in an RV or boat.
  5. Overseas Exile, American currently in Amsterdam.
  6. Far Away Hammer
  7. The Venice Experiment, American expats in Venice, Italy.
  8. Without Any Walls, expats in Germany.
  9. Gringos Abroad, a family of Canadians in Ecuador.
  10. Piglet in Portugal, writes a lot about food as well as other aspects of everyday expat life in Portugal.
  11. Nicaragua Dispatch. This is actually an online newspaper, but I found it well worth spending some time with.
  12. Expats in Italy
  13. The Zieglers Blog, expats in Canada

    14. Travel

    These are not your typical travel sites, but sites of people who spent most of their lives traveling.

  14. A Little Adrift
  15. Travels of Adam
  16. Magic Travel Blog
  17. The Adventures of D
  18. How to Travel with Pets

    • Oh my gosh, you moved last Friday and I didn’t include that info in a post published on Saturday? 🙂 How long do you plan to be there before you move on again?

      Thanks for the update — I’ll look forward to reading your adventures in France.

      • I’m not planning on moving again for a good long while. By my count, that’s my fifth country and 38th move. I’m very, very tired of moving around. Fortunately, I’ve a great job and with a French wife, this time things should be a bit easier for us.

        I’m glad you enjoy the blog!

  8. Great information on your blog! I love the flip-flops on the ground point of view. I have been researching for the past year as I wind down my career and explore the opportunities for what’s next. Hubby retired last year and declared “That’s it, we’re selling it all on ebay and becoming citizens of the world in our retirement. If it doesn’t fit in a backpack and a rollie suitcase, we don’t need it!” Ha! I now blog about our adventures as we begin to do just this. We are definitely future expats who are attempting to smell the roses and find joy in each step as we move toward this new goal and second act. Love your blog!!
    PS – If you enjoy my blog, maybe you could add it to your list? I’ll be checking them all out and know I’ll find more great info and inspiration.

    • Hi Amanda,

      I do put out lists of expat blogs from time to time — no regular schedule for it though.
